Diva Faustina: Coinage and Cult in Rome and the Provinces BY-NC AJA Open Access April 2016 (120.2) Book Review Diva Faustina: Coinage and Cult in Rome and the Provinces By Martin Beckmann (Numismatic Studies 26). Pp. xii + 170, figs. 73, b&w pls. 36, charts 18. The American Numismatic Society, New York 2012. $95. ISBN 978-0-89722-322-5 (cloth). Reviewed by Olivier Hekster 120.2 Faustina the Elder (ca. 100–140 C.E.) was Augusta (empress) of the Roman empire for two years, from the accession of her husband Antoninus Pius to the throne in 138 to her death. She was the mother of Faustina the Younger (ca. 125/130–175) and adopted mother of the later emperors Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. She was also genealogically linked to the emperors Trajan and Hadrian. Her name is prominently present on the inscription of the large temple in the Roman forum, dedicated to Diva Faustina and Divus Antoninus. This apparently central, dynastic position in second- century Roman emperorship has not led to much scholarly attention until recently, as Beckmann notes at the very beginning of his monograph (2). Since the appearance of this volume, that lacuna has been admirably filled by Levick’s recent Faustina I and II: Imperial Women of the Golden Age (Oxford 2014), which only incorporated an earlier article by Beckmann. Notwithstanding the author’s criticism of the lack of attention to Faustina by modern scholars, this book is not concerned with Faustina as such, nor really (despite the title) with the cult of the divine Faustina. Instead, it focuses on the empress’ public image after her death as reflected in coinage, especially for the city of Rome. The book is effectively a careful analysis of the commemoration of the deified empress through centrally minted coins, contextualized by regular comparisons with other types of sources in Rome, and occasional comparisons with coinage in the provinces. Within these limitations, this is an extremely useful and carefully argued book. Beckmann traces the late empress’ image through a systematic analysis of coin types dedicated to Faustina, especially the aurei. The basis of his argument is a catalogue of 916 gold coins (107–51). A catalogue of sestertius dies with the legend DIVA AVG(VSTA) FAVSTINA follows (153–67), with a reference to the American Numismatic Society website for further (DIVA FAVSTINA) sestertius dies. At the end of the volume there are clear plates showing images of obverse and reverse types, systematic die charts, and a minimal but fairly useful index. After a brief introduction (1–4), chapter 1 (5–17) sets out the methods through which these coins are analyzed, with much emphasis on die studies. As Beckmann demonstrates, there are linked aureus series that give us a complete picture of gold coins issued for Diva Faustina, which can occasionally be placed in a fixed chronology by shared die links to coins of family members. This allows the author to date accurately the aurei and recognize which changes in coin types developed gradually and which developed suddenly. This clear chronology is essential for understanding the developments of four themes on the gold coins that are central to chapters 2–5, which form the main thrust of the book: CONSECRATIO (on the deification [19–39]), DEDICATIO AEDIS (on the Temple of the Divine Faustina [41–50]), VOTA PUBLICA (on the marriage of Faustina the Younger [51–62]), and AETERNITAS (on the anniversary of the deification [63–72]). A final chapter (ch. 6 [73–91]) places the coinage that was issued for Diva Faustina in the 140s and 150s in the context of commemoration “outside the capital and in non-numismatic media both within and outside Rome” (73). In the four thematic chapters, Beckmann traces the chronology of the coin types and then argues how images in these coin types relate to major historical events. This allows him to make valuable observations. The enormous numismatic attention to Diva Faustina was unprecedented, and the various types struck in her name seem to have reflected a range of historical events, placing the deified empress squarely within Roman society. In that way, the Elder Faustina’s central dynastic position continued posthumously, particularly in relation to the wedding of Faustina the Younger and the birth of the latter’s first daughter, Annia Faustina. These important dynastic events can be traced by looking at marked changes in the iconography of dominating types of gold coinage. Likewise, modification in the posthumous coinage following the 10th anniversary of Faustina’s deification suggests that attention shifted away from the dead empress toward her living daughter and grandchildren. In the last chapter, developments on central coinage (and to a lesser extent sculptural display in the city of Rome) is contrasted with coinage and sculpture in the provinces. In Beckmann’s analysis, Diva Faustina’s dominant position in Rome apparently was not reciprocated in the provinces, where she was much less frequently commemorated. This limited attention on provincial coins is not entirely surprising since from the later reigns of the Julio-Claudians onward provincial coinage increasingly focused on imperial wives and children. Indeed, Faustina the Elder was the last deceased empress to feature on provincial coinage—a development that the author could have included in his argument. Perhaps the most important criticism of this book is that the author pays minimal attention both to how the development of the commemoration of the deified empress relates to further developments in the commemoration of members of the imperial house as well as to the role coins played in imperial representations as such. There is surprisingly little attention to the questions of who issued coins and how these coins were perceived. The role of central coinage in communication and commemoration is assumed but not analyzed. Throughout the volume, Beckmann places the ancient evidence, especially the coin types, at the fore, and develops his arguments from there. The precision with which he analyzes his source material is commendable, but occasionally more engagement with recent scholarship would be welcome. For instance, Rowan has recently argued in Proceedings of the XIV International Numismatic Congress (C. Rowan, “Communicating a Consecratio: The Deification Coinage of Faustina I” [Glasgow 2011] 991–98), in which Beckmann himself also published an article, that changes of Faustina’s titulature on provincial coinage and the very fact that there was continuation of her image on these coins after her death show recognition of Faustina’s posthumous visual presence in the capital. It would have been good to see Beckmann react to these conclusions, which go against his own findings. None of this takes away from the importance of this impressive and immensely detailed work, which shows once more how crucial analysis of coin types is for our understanding of Roman history.

  • The Prince and His Tutor: Candour and Affection
    The Prince and his Tutor: Candour and Affection Miriam Griffin Introduction I first met Hannah when she came as a graduate student to Somerville College, to work for an Oxford doctorate. I was her college adviser, and the subject of her thesis was letters of recommendation. I hope that the following account of the correspondence of Fronto and Marcus Aurelius will be thought an appropriate tribute to those early beginnings of Hannah’s high distinction as a scholar and of our warm friendship that has lasted ever since. Like Marcus Aurelius, she has a genius for creating networks of friends. Fronto’s Correspondence There are references to M. Cornelius Fronto as Marcus’ teacher of rhetoric in the Historia Augusta: Marcus 24-5 and Verus 2.5, and in the historian Cassius Dio (71.35.1), but the principal evidence is in Book I of Marcus’ Meditations and, of course, in their correspondence. ‘Prince’ in my title may suggest Marcus’ pre-accession status as Caesar, but mention will also be made of the letters between the Emperor and his former tutor, and even of Emperors, since Marcus’ adoptive brother, known as Lucius Verus after becoming joint Emperor in 161 AD, was also a pupil of Fronto. This correspondence as a whole is quite varied in subject matter, contributing much to social and cultural history and to the study of ancient literary tastes and techniques; it is also entertaining, as there is a lot of humour and teasing in the relationship between Fronto and his pupils, as well as much irony — not always fully appreciated.1 It is natural that less literary and philosophical attention has been paid to these letters, in comparison with those of Cicero, Seneca, and Pliny, given the Herculean efforts that have been necessary to recover the text and establish some kind of chronology.

  • The Antonine Plague and the 'Third-Century Crisis'
    THE ANTONINE PLAGUE AND THE ‘THIRD-CENTURY CRISIS’ Christer Bruun* Introduction: the Antonine plague This paper will discuss two broad topics, the plague under Marcus Aurelius and the development of the Roman empire from the late second century onwards, and the relations between these two phe- nomena. The English word ‘plague’ is here used in the general sense of ‘potentially lethal epidemic disease’. I do not want to imply that we are dealing with the ‘bubonic plague’ caused by the yersinia pestis bacillus (discovered or identi ed in 1894),1 as today no one knows for certain what disease spread through the Roman world from 165 C.E. onwards, regardless of much speculation on the matter.2 The role of the plague among the causes of the ‘third-century crisis’ The ‘third century crisis’ is in itself a debated topic, as is made abun- dantly clear in other contributions in this volume. To save time and space, I will simply take it for granted that changes affected the Roman world from the reign of Marcus Aurelius onwards which in certain * Warm thanks are due to Lukas de Blois, Olivier Hekster, Gerda de Kleijn and the other organizers of the colloquium in Nijmegen.

  • The Paulinism of Titus and Timothy: How the Pastoral Letters Reflect First Century Christianity
    The Paulinism of Titus and Timothy: How the Pastoral Letters Reflect First Century Christianity JONATHAN JEFFERSON University of North Carolina–Greensboro (NC) The New Testament canon as we know it today was compiled in 367 CE by Athanasius of Alexandria. The reliability of Christian scriptures had been debated for three centuries by that point, with many gospels and epistles determined to be forgeries and others con- sidered authentic. Thirteen of the twenty-seven books of the New Tes- tament that were accepted claim to be written by Paul of Tarsus. The authenticity of some of them, however, has been questioned by scholars for centuries since. Of the thirteen, seven are considered “au- thentically Pauline”—Romans, First and Second Corinthians, Gala- tians, Philippians, Philemon, and First Thessalonians—and three more are called “Deutero-Pauline”—Second Thessalonians, Colos- sians, and Ephesians—and have scholars divided over their authentic- ity. The letters of First and Second Timothy and Titus, however, collectively known as the “Pastorals,” are traditionally believed to have been written by Paul shortly before his execution, but are almost uni- versally rejected today as pseudepigraphal forgeries on account that their situational context seems to reflect the second and third cen- turies, while Paul died in the mid-first. The criticism falls mainly on two aspects of the letters: Gnosticism/Marcionism and the advanced church hierarchy. Critical rejection of Paul’s letters has remained largely within scholarly circles for the past two centuries, while the UR Volume I | Issue 1 | Winter 2021 • 30 The Paulinism of Titus and Timothy: How the Pastoral Letters Reflect First Century Christianity public generally accepted all New Testament epistles based on tradi- tion.

  • The Twentieth Legion and the History of the Antonine Wall Reconsidered1" Vivien G Swan*
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 129 (1999), 399-480 The Twentieth Legion and the history of the Antonine Wall reconsidered1" Vivien G Swan* ABSTRACT A study of utilitarian pottery from the Antonine Wall has distinguished small numbers of locally made vessels with North African affinities at nine or 10 forts. Similar vessels at Chester and others made by Legio XX at the Holt works depot, one with a potter's graffito in neo-Punic, suggest the presence of North Africans. Detachments sent from Britain to Pius' Mauretanian war of AD 146-9 may have brought North Africans back with them Britainto (possibly including legionary recruits or transfers, and Moorish irregulars or levies). At the western sector of the Antonine Wall, changes in the legionary work-stints may be linked to troop reductions for the war, as the mural barrier and Bearsden and Duntocher fort interiors were still unfinished. After the conflict, Bearsden and Duntocher were each partitioned maketo annexean theirand internal buildings re-plannedand completed; programmea annexeof construction began otherat forts, secondaryand alterations were made to many existing fort interiors. All may be connected with changes in units or in the composition of the returning garrisons, now perhaps mixed and augmented with small numbers of North African troops.
